Sorry, Sam, you told me to update it on last Sunday. But aaj pakka update kar diya… Hope you all like this part.
Part 6:
Nupur and Sheena left from her home before Nupur's aunty could change her mind.
They went to the place where Mayank was waiting for them.
Mayank was pacing in front of the car impatiently. He looked them coming with a smile on their faces and relieved. He looked at Nupur.
M: Done?
N: Haan.
Nupur was delighted as she was going out of Mumbai with friends for the first time. She was too much excited to go. She gave Mayank a high five. "I am so happy, mayank. I can't believe ki mujhe permission mil gayi."
M: I am also happy ki tumhe Mafias ne permission de di… (Grinned)
Nupur pretended to be angry and sad by his statement. "They are my family, Mayank."
M: Just joking. (Feeling sorry)
N: (Laughed) Dhakkan. I was also joking.
M: What? Hmm… I will have to be careful from now on. You are a very smart girl.
Nupur laughed some more and Mayank pinched her cheek.
Sheena was confused as she was feeling left out. But she was open minded. So she just let it go. Then all three of them went for shopping. Mayank and Sheena kept talking, and Nupur tried to escape from there as much as possible to give them some privacy as they were a couple. But each time, when she went somewhere else, Mayank dragged her back to them by any excuse and his cute dimple smile and puppy face. Then they dropped Nupur at her place at around 6:00 in evening and they both went to their places.
****************************************************************
Nupur was having dinner with everyone at home. While serving Adhiraj, Nupur's aunty brought up the topic.
Ratna: Beta Nupur, packing start kar diya?
Nupur gulped her soup. Why does she have to speak in front of Adhi bhaiya and Diya di?
N: Ji, vo parso jana he na. To kal packing kar lungi.
Adhiraj looked at her mom questioningly and Diya looked at Nupur. Nupur pretended to be so much engrossed in dinner and avoided Diya's eyes.
After the dinner was over, Ratna told everything to Adhiraj and Diya while Nupur was up in her room reading a novel.
Diya entered the room, "Hey Nupur."
N: Hi Diya. How as your day?
D: As usual. So… you are going to marriage, mom was saying something about Goa.
N: Haan. Vo meri Internet friend he na, Sheena. Uski shadi he. In Goa. And she insisted ki me shadi me jau. To isi liye.
D: Lekin shadi kab he?
N: Sunday ko.
D: To tum itni jaldi kyu jaa rahi ho. Parso to sirf Wednesday he, Nupur.
Diya was feeling that something is fishy and Nupur is hiding the half truth from her.
Nupur was getting tensed by her constant C.I.D. questions. But she knew that she had to convince Diya or the game is over.
She made Diya sit on the bed near her, "Of ho, Diya di… Aap bhi na. Ab Sheena parso jaa rahi he, Apni family ke sath. To vo chahti he ki me bhi uske sath jau. Sare friends sath me thoda time enjoy karege, uski shadi se pehle. Aur sab Wednesday chale jayege, to fir me akeli kis ke sath jaugi?
Diya looked convinced by this.
D: Hmm… I think you are right. Ok, ab ye novel side pe rkho and go to sleep.
N: Haan. Good night.
D: Good night.
Diya left the room and Nupur sai, "Sorry di. Me aap se jooth boli. Magar me kuchh galat to nahi kar rahi hu. Ok. Ab mujhe so jana chahiye. It's very late."
She switched of the liht and went to sleep with lots of excitement to go alone out of Mumbai with her new friends.
****************************************************************
At Mayank's home, everyone was gathered in the drawing room after dinner. Mayank was standing at one side looking down at the floor.
Mayank's dad: Goa? Magar abhi?
M: Umm… dad, vo sab friends ne plan bnaya he. Ghumne jana he.
Mayank's mom looked worriedly at her husband. Samrat and Gunjan were also tensed about what dad would say.
MD: Ghumne jana he? Tum me responsibility naam ki koi chiz he bhi ya nahi?
Mayank knew this was going to happen. He just shrugged his shoulder.
MD: tum nahi jaa rahe ho. Tum kal e mere sath office aa rahe ho. Got it?
Mayank looked hurt and he just nodded and left from there. He went to the bed thinking what he would tell his friends. He thought of Sheena that he would be angry. But suddenly Nupur's picture came in his mind. "Nahi. Nupur ke liye ye kitna khushi ka mauka he? I will have to convince dad at any cost. Kal unse vapis baat karuga. Aur sab to thik he. Magar nupur ke liye… me ye jaroor karuga."
And he went to bed thinking what he would do to convince his dad.
After Mayank left the drawing room, Samrat and Gunjan tried to convince their dad to let him go on the tour.
MD: Nahi, Samrat, Gunja, tum dono ne ise bahot bigad diya he. Abhi 2 din pehle ki baat he. Us Mr. Bhushan key aha gaye to us ladki ki vajah se kitne problem hue he?
MM: Suniye. Is baar jane do na ise. Me janti hu ki ye har baar ka he. Magar please, aj vo bahot hurt ho gaya he. Use jane do na.
S: ha, dad, please.
G: Please, Dad, vo ayega uske baad me use samjaugi… Vo phir jaroor regularly office ayega.
MD: Thik he. Tum sab keh rahe ho to me maan jata hu.
S: Thank you dad.
MD: Chalo ab sab ja ke so jao. Gunjan…
G: Ji, dad?
MD: Use subah bata dena ki kal office mat aye, packing kar l.
G (With tear of happiness in her eyes): Ji dad.
All went to their rooms. And soon it was morning….
*******************************************************************
Mayank was damn happy next day when Gunjan informed him about dad's decision.
The day passed quickly as they all finished their packing. Sheena was not packing, of course. She was going to wait for Saturday to go to Goa.
When Nupur was packing her bag, Ratna had came in her room for some work. And she saw her half packed bag. But soon she left as Dadi called her.
*******************************************************************
Finally the sun rose slowly in the morning and it was the Wednesday.
All got ready. The mini- bus they had hired was being driven by one of their friend only. They all were inside and they came at last to pick up Nupur from 2 streets away from Nupur's home.
The door at the back side opned and Nupur saw Mayank in the door.
M: Hey, Nupur.
Nupur smiled, "Hi"
Mayank stretched his hand for her luggage. She handed him her bag and then he pulled her by her hand inside. As she climbed inside the bus, Mayank made her sit on the seat beside him. "So let the journey begin…"
Then Mayank introduced her to everyone.
M: Ok, firstly intro. So guys… look.. Here is…
All turned towards Nupur. And spoke in unison, "Nupur"
Benji grinned, "Haan, Nupur… 3 din se is ne sab ke samne tumhara naam itni baar liya he ki sab bina introduction ke bhi tumhe jaan sakte he."
Nupur unknowingly blushed. And Mayank punched Benji on his shoulder.
B: Ouch.
Nupur spoke to avoid her blushing. " Hi, Benji.. Hi, Simmy. How are you guys?"
S: We are fine, Nupur. What's up?
N: Nothing. Juts the usual.
M: Ok, so here are… Arman, Ridhima, Sid, Naina, Tamanna. Yuvi is driving the bus right now.
N: Hi, everyone.
All mixed up very well with her. And she enjoyed the journey to Goa so much. They all played Antakshari for some time. Then they played truth and dare, Dum seras, and finally… they reached Goa.
It was 4:00 PM on Wednesday when they reached.
Yuvi stopped the bus near one of the beach and all got down with some food bags and football and all. The guys started their masti. Girls were also there in water by now. But Mayank noticed Nupur missing. He looked around and watched her in a far orner. She was walking alone. He took his handi cam and followed her. When he finally reached her, she was near a small pond. No one was there. The place was surrounded by trees and plants.
Nupur folded his jeans up to her knees and at there on a stone. She started to play with water.
Mayank was watching her and shooting her acts in his cam. He silently went exactly behind her and took some water and called her.. "Nupur…"
As she turned her face towards him, he threw that water on her face.
Nupur covered her face with her hands, "Ouch… Mayank.. kya kar rahe ho?"
She saw him shooting and tried to hide her face.
M: Tumhare khilaf saboot dhundh raha hu.
N: Kya? (She uncovered her face shocked by his talk)
M: Haan… Miss Nupur Bhushan, jo ki apne ghar pe apni friend ki shadi ka bahana banati he. Aur phir Goa me apne fiends ke sath enjoy kar rahi he. Kya me jaan sakta hu kyu?
N (In the complete dramatic mode now…): My Lord… Life ek hi bar milti he. So I thought I should enjoy it…. So what if I have to speak some lies or that?
Mayank was left dumb struck by this.
He just looked at her adoringly. And Nupur raised eyebrows at him as if saying, "Ab bolo?"
He smiled and held his wrist and took her to the beach where everyone was enjoying.
They all played together and enjoyed so much. At night, they all played outside in front of fire with every other group that had came to Goa.
At 12:00 they finally went to sleep. As Nupur entered Mayank's room, Mayank started teasing her.
M: Ek ladka aur ek ladki ek hi kamre me? Ye to sarasar nainsafi he.
N: Baki sare kamre couples ne capture kar liye he. Aur tumhari girlfriend 2 din baad aa rahi he, to ye hi ek option bacha tha.
M: Nahi ye nahi ho sakta…
N: Gabhrao mat, me tum pe rape nahi karugi.
M: To phir thik he. They both laughed and Nupur fell on her bed that was just beside his bed.
In the morning, when Mayank woke up, he found Nupur sleeping peacefully, a cute smile playing on her face.
He woke her up. "Nupur, utho na!"
She woke up… "Huummm?"
M: Kya soch rahi thi?
N: Mayank… me so rahi thi.
M: Tum smile kar rahi thi.
N: (Tried to remember her dream)
M: Koi sapna dekh rahi thi?
N: Bhul gayi. Tumne jaga diya na isi liye.
M: Oops… Sorry.
N: It's ok. Budhdhu. Chalo, ab ready ho jao. Me bhi taiyar ho jati hu.
Thursday and Friday passed in this way only. All friends enjoyed together. But Mayank and Nupur kept chatting only. Mayank never hesitated a bit to share anything with Nupur. And same case was with Nupur. Even if it was some stupid matter that was worth laughing they would share it with each other.
And finally… Saturday was there. Today Sheena was going to come. So Mayank was happy about that, too.
They all got up, got ready and Mayank-Nupur went to station to pick up Sheena.
